Located about 50 minutes northeast of downtown Toronto, the Ron Garl–designed course has positioned itself as an all-inclusive, all-day experience, with green fees that cover everything from pro tips to meals. So it’s not surprising that has become a favourite of the corporate crowd. Adding to its allure are the 13 homage holes—inspired by such famous courses as Augusta, Pine Valley and Troon—some of which work brilliantly. The fourth, a tribute to the 13th at Augusta, is a classic, sweeping par five that doglegs around the local creek. On the back loop, the 17th is a faithful recreation of the infamous island green at the TPC at Sawgrass in Florida. The St. Andrews–inspired holes on the back nine are less successful—this is not links-land Scotland. The strongest stretch on the course is arguably five to eight, all original holes that run along the high ground and slope toward the water and ravine.
